Code Select Expand
> s
"[Event this is the first event [Event this is the second event [Event and this is the third"

> (regex "[\[]" s 0)
("[" 0 1)
> (parse "[\]]" s 0)

regular expression in function parse : "offset 91 missing terminating ] for character class"

If regex is happy, what is parse's problem? Please enlighten me.

--hsm

UPDATE: uh--- Duh! How about wrong order of parameters in parse? Ignore this post please...

If you type:

Code Select Expand
> (parse s "[\]]"  0)

Note the position of 's' (before the regex)

You get:

Code Select Expand
("[Event this is the first event [Event this is the second event [Event and this is the third")

Is this what you expect ?

Sorry, I didn't see:
